  1. Had a quick look on auto trader looks like these cars have hit rock bottom prices. Nows the time to buy one as long as the condition is good.
  2. No mention of service history so be lucky to get 1600?
  3. Tested this a few times 40 quids of regular stuff gives more miles than 40 Quid's of vpower. Simple reason is you get more petrol for the 40 Quid's of regular stuff
  4. the undertray clips i got were 7mm ones i believe. i used these ones which are to fit a 7mm dia hole, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TOYOTA-WHEEL-ARCH-INNER-LINING-SPLASHGUARD-ENGINE-UNDER-TRAY-TRIM-CLIPS-COVER-/190818319990?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&fits=Car+Make%3AToyota&hash=item2c6da87e76 i did order some 8mm ones but they too big to fit.
  5. Had this on an escort once the starter had seized could even crank engine by hand. Remove your starter motor and try turning the crank
  6. hmm how much would it cost to make an exact replica of the stock exhaust system for a 190 out of stainless steel so that it looks the same and sounds the same as the original?
  7. Mine will soon be coming to 2 years ownership and in that time iv put less than 6k on it. Doesn't make me want to sell it.
  8. My guess is there won't be more than 1200
  9. someone is doing a 2zz into an aygo. you could give it a try too with he beams.
  10. whats the difference in the drive/handling going from 215/45/r17 to 195/55/r15 ?
  11. Are you the guy who once posted a PIC of the gen 7 bushes showing around 12-14 bushes for everything inc arb bushes etc. I can't find the thread now search not being accurate enough. Also if using polybush for front and rear suspension arms does there need to be any specific toe setting or just run standard?
  12. cheaper from eurocarparts by far for the whole wishbone.
  13. i thought someone already did this service, was it the guy who does the engine mounts on here? i thought that was you or is it mixer72 or something, i get confused think you both got pics of red celicas as avatars. i thought one of you guys does a swap takes the old wishbone/trailing arm and swaps it for the polybushed one? im sure this has been mentioned somewhere.
  14. how hard to fit the bushes? do ya need to use a press?
  15. when my cousin had a crash ambulance people came and had to use the vacuum to suck up all the tiny bits of glass they were all over him. now for an adult its not too bad to clear glass from the eyes but with kids its gonna be a whole different story. if the cost is £150 to get the rear window, the 2 quarters and the front sides done then to me its money well spent especially since I plan on keeping the car for the rest of its life. just need to find someone who does it in Coventry and does a quality job.
  16. Yes a cousin of mine was in a crash and had loads of tiny glass fly around into his hair etc. Ambulance had to use a vacuum cleaner to get most of it out. Iv had one family member in a crash who had tinted windows and they got no glass on them. So the stuff does work. Will check out some places. Can order the film from eBay etc but if its like putting screen protectors on a phone it's gonna get bubbly
  17. Is the film applied from the outside or inside?
  18. anyone know of any places in the midlands that do this sort of stuff? i can get it from amazon and ebay and do it DIY but was wondering if there are any companies out there that specialise in it. its the film that prevents the glass from flying all over the place in the case of an accident. now that i got the baby in the car im looking at more safty features.
